Kirk Cousins Throws For 285 Yards Against Washington
5 years agoMinnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins completed 23 of 26 passes for 285 yards in Week 8's 19-9 win over the Washington Redskins. He didn't throw a touchdown or an interception but was very accurate again in the victory. The Vikings totaled 38 rushing attempts as they continue to stress Dalvin Cook and the rushing attack, but Cousins is feeling it right now, as he has topped 285 passing yards in four straight games and is averaging a high 10.9 yards per attempt over that span. Cousins will get stud receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring) back in Week 9 against the Kansas City Chiefs, and he should be started as a QB1 moving forward.
